stock amps and HU amp

[blackhawk911 10+ year member]

I have 2 stock amps for my speakers, 1 for the front 2 speakers and 1 for the back 2 speakers. (i think there like 100 watts each) If you plugged them back in (i bypassed them to get rid of a crackly sound i was getting through the speakers), will the stock amps and the HU amp combine or something to give the speakers more watts?

No. You're still limited to the power rating of the stock amplifier; but it will probably be easier to drive it into distortion because it's getting a much higher level input signal than it was with the stock radio.

is there any way to bypass the HU amp b/c thats like 20 watts x 4 channel which sucks compared to the stocks?
